Creatine

My father-in-law's doctors say he has too much creatine in his blood and his kidneys are suffering. Is there any natural way to remove creatine from the blood?

The doctor was probably talking about creatinine, not creatine. Creatinine is a molecule excreted by the kidneys. It is measured in the blood as a monitor of kidney function. It is not often the cause of the kidney damage, just a measure of the kidney's function. Creatine is metabolized to creatinine so it would not be a good idea for your father in law to use a creatine supplement but there is no need to try to remove it either unless his kidneys were bad enough to need dialysis.
